    Might need this around here...

    What a day.

    Hope everyone takes a deep breath and remembers that if we're here reading this, you're safe, somewhere with electricity, presumably unoccupied with other needs (food, warmth, employment), and thus, doing pretty alright.

    Love the ones you're with tonight kids. Bump for some much needed good vibes...holla from Minnesota.

    Thank you for this thread. It's funny how often I am on here and I missed this.
    It did a great job of cheering me up this morning.
    I'm thankful for a lot of things today. Mostly that the ones I love are safe.

    This is so great. I'm grateful for The Long Road. It always puts me at ease when times are stressed.

    The Freddy Krueger with the goofy face look. Nice Stone. Love it.

    My best friend and I were lucky enough to win lottery 9th row front and center at Alpine. The entire time after that we talked about how goofy Stone's faces were during the show.

    I want to say thank you to this band (even though they can't help being awesome - that's what they were meant to be) for all these years of great music, for being the soundtrack of my life and for being a great company throughout good and bad times, and I want to thank these boards and 10C members, even those who bitch (even the ones who bitch about the bitching) because you were also a great company too, for sharing your/our love for this band, and for the fun time and interesting discussions... (no need to say how much I saved on therapy sessions)... have a nice weekend... shit, I don't have any beer...
    ... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...
